Cutaneous leishmaniasis in northwestern Saudi Arabia: identification of sand fly fauna and parasites

2 Nov 2017

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is a vector-borne disease transmitted by the bite of an infected sand fly. This disease is highly prevalent in Saudi Arabia where Leishmania major and L. tropica are the etiological agents. In the region of Hail, northwestern of Saudi Arabia, the incidence is about 183 cases/year. However, the epidemiology of the disease in this area is not well understood. Thus, an...
